yeah okay but some people's ups are higher and downs are lower. Fact is, you and I have no idea what he was dealing with so, like wagon said, passing judgement is pointless.

It sounds so cliche, but so many people have it worse than most people that we all know.

I feel bad for his family and friends, but I think he should have learned how to deal with his issues rather than waste his own life.

That's true...but there's so many places that you can go for help these days. I don't know...I guess I can't pass judgement. It just seems like such a stupid thing to do to me.

I think your a complete idiot, alot of people who commit suicide are not doing to upset their family or friends. everyone at one point in life thinks of suicide and anyone who tells you they never have is a liar. We will never know what this person was thinking so don't pass judgement.

what RB and IamNemo said are right. I've myself had so many problems, but my responsibility is greater and I do not think everything for myself. So I don't think suicide is forgivable to anyone.

Also, I've seen and known people who are in much worse situation. I mean, I've seen those who lost families, love, life, become handicaped, all at the same in the war, then move the US without the english knowledge, yet they live on and became success. I don't care if you call me a hater and that i pass wrong judgement. All I see is that suicide = unforgivable, stupid, self fish person who looks for an easy way out.

Ok lets open this one for debate, Then why in Japan is the suicide rate so much higher and in my own a thought seems to be accepted? Yet in the U.S. suicide is looked down on?

I didn't accept any form or reasons of suicide, doesn't matter where. I think u misunderstand my point. What I'm saying is that my own belief and my reasons. It doesn't mean you have to agree with it. I just told you how i view it.

Again, I don't think Suicide in Jap is > US. Suicide is suicide, doens't matter where is it or whatever reason it has. To me, it still stupid, selfish, and unforgivable.
